      $1.2 Billion in iPhone Apps? Not Likely.
      While there *may* be a large percentage of free apps, even some really cool ones that drive other services (Slingbox, et al), most of the must-have apps for the iPhone will be offered for a fee. My guess is the typical iPhone owner will be spending far more than $10 a year on apps.

      Dell: No Angles Left?
      "In fact, as a CEO I would have to score Michael Dell higher than Jobs since Dell created something that was not a fad. His SCM model turned the business world upside down. As for Jobs, he will need to continue his fads to repeat previous success. "

      Sorry, but you clearly don't have a very good knowledge of the subject. You'd rate Dell higher than Jobs? You realize that Apple is worth four times as much as Dell now, right? Dismissing Apple's successes as "fads" is typical of an Apple detractor. The iPod was introduced in 2001. Can you name me some other "fads" that lasted over seven years? You miss the real point, anyway. Apple's pc sales are growing at 3-4 times the rate of Windows pc makers. If you really had been following the company for any length of time, you'd know that, and you'd know that Macs are the bread and butter of AAPL's earnings. And get this - they actually get to make a healthy profit on the machines they sell, imagine that! Market share is nice, but as Apple is demonstrating, it's much nicer to have products that there simply is no competition for.

      Microsoft's XBox 3 Could Give It Market Supremacy
      Is it just me, or this article read like it was translated from English to Japanese and then back to English?

      There's no way the Xbox 360 will last until 2015 with a technically superior competitor in the PS3 and a cheaper, more innovative competitor in the Wii. The impending death of HD-DVD is a huge blow to Microsoft as well.
